• The situation in the province has not reached its peak and Kahnawà:ke will maintain its plan regardless of Quebec’s announcements on this topic
• “Kahnawà:ke is for residents only” will be maintained, aside from essential and emergency community needs
• This situation will be reassessed in one week

• Flooding of the property
• Broken heating/cooling system
• Backed-up sewage system affecting the property
• Broken lock allows persons to enter without the use of a key
• Electrical/wiring problems creating fire or electrocution hazard
• Leaking roof
• Leak in household plumbing
• Broken refrigerator or stove
• Anything that poses an immediate health or safety threat in the home

• Any local Kahnawà:ke landscaping or landscape maintenance including nurseries and garden services are permitted to operate
• Garden soil deliveries from outside the community for food creation.
• Any local Kahnawà:ke pool service company can open pools. Non-local companies are still on hold at this time – to be reassessed
